In the very long book of Eminem masterpieces, this is near the first chapter for me. To me it really started this "new" Eminem where every line has 14 meanings. These newer albums can't ever hold sentimental value of his first few, but I think they're way more lyrically impressive. He's just the 🐐 and it's really not even close
Having those kinds of meanings in lines happened on revival before this though. "Believe" still may not have been topped by newer Em tracks in terms of wordplay and punchlines
@@absent72 That's a growing trend. It has always been one of his signature, not just since Revival, all the way since Infinite even. But he's clearly more sharp than ever each time.
@@Slgjgnz Yeah I know he's had punchlines since infinite. But they got to the level they're at currently starting with revival. Specifically on the track I mentioned. I don't think he's sharper than he was on that track, but he's maintained that level and can do it more consistently now
@@kazezero1500 I slept on Revival for the most part. Not on purpose but because life. I was online when Kamikaze dropped, got 4-163 notifications about it and gave up that week LOL.
The “full magazine could take staples out” bar was in reference to Vince Staples. He had made a comment on Em, I can’t remember what right now, but that was a quick rebuttal to that
The whole colorblind, aquamarine, peach rant is Em calling out Charlamagne. I guess Em called "The Thing" (comic character) orange in his BET Cypher and Charlamagne tried to say he was wrong and trashed Em.
11:30 he says "so the Thames might freeze".The Thames river is in London. And almost never freezes. He's so cold on the mic he's gonna freeze the unfreezable
This is my all time favorite song from em. The title is a triple entendre, he disses everyone, has the "I'm back" vibes, angry, metaphors, wordplay, *27 DIFFERENT FOWS,* 10+ rhyme schemes Ended a sub genre of rap, and brought back a BUNCH of legends back to kill off mumble rap (Nas, Andre 3000, DRE, Black thought, etc.) It's a lyrical masterpiece that I hold in the same regard as Lupe's Mural
This is another prime example of his lyrical gymnastics ability. For my favorite example of Em's lyrical marathon ability is Stay Wide Awake. He stays on the same cadence/rhyme scheme for so long in that track it's unbelievable.
Awesome reaction again. And my favourite thing about this song, and new Em music in general how much more there is to the songs than just the lyrics. They are amazing on a conceptual level as well. Take this for an example. A track against haters and popular rap songs that are too bad according to his standards, which has an insane amount of flows. So on a structural level, Em disses the game by showing how many different things you can do on a track and still talk about something. He even uses flow patterns that he does not like, but are used by some of the people he disses, to show off that even those "lesser" flows can be done much better. Total annihilation by craftsmanship.
I was born in '80 and grew up listening to Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Grand Master Flash, Cool J, Ice Cube, Dre, and Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. These guys were artists who told stories clearly and concisely with their words. Eminem raps like they did at their best all the time. I have no tolerance for mumble rap either.
Salute and Respect! I try telling people that he is one of the greatest storytellers of all time and I grew up listening to the exact same artist in the eighties and nineties! And now he is showing technical precision that we have NEVER seen before.
Appreciate the outro telling your fans to reach out during the holidays if they don’t got family and feel alone, and not asking for money either, this is why I watch your videos
I grew up listening to eminem but I've been out of the loop with rap music since that mumble rap stuff started coming out. That shit really put me off hip hop and rap in general but I'm glad videos like this popped up on my feed because I likely wouldn't have heard it otherwise. It's reminiscent of the good old days in the 90s - early 2000s where my neighbour would blast eminem 24/7.
I completely agree with what you said at the end about having to listen to it like 10 times to catch everything. When this album came out I had been out of my Eminem listening phase for a good while and from the very first track (which I believe this was but could be wrong), I had to listen to just about every track on repeat for a week just to fully appreciate what he was doing here on this album and fully comprehend the lyrics that we lyric driven rap lovers love and appreciate accomplished here. Not that it was necessarily a surprise but it was rejuvenating to hear this level of Em that we all know he’s capable of just come out swinging for the fences.
Reaction is a year old. I feel like I need to have a PHD in bar reading to catch this. Hundred years from now they will have college classes. Examining Ems lyrics lol. The guy is a word play genius
Started watching your videos recently and I thought I caught alot of what Eminem throws in.......... I was wrong I missed so much. He is a genius. Keep up the great vids!
Never clicked on a video so fast!!! Brilliant breakdown Cliff!!! This is one of my favourites from the album! Loving these longer Eminem breakdowns!!! Keep spreading the love Cliff, you’re a real one!!!
@Cliff Beats the ice scheme he actually says "I polarize shit so the Thames might freeze..." he's referring to the river Thames which does not naturally freeze over.
Dude I love watching your Em reactions. I really enjoy where you break down the bars, because I miss certain things. The doubles and triples mixed with homophones, etc.. is a lot to digest all at once. Definitely subscribing to your channel.
Before the 40 line these lines resonate with me heavy: "And I'm harder on myself than you could ever be, regardless, what I'll never be is flawless, all I'll ever be is honest" That describes me to a T. Fucking fire! 🔥
I've noticed that if you're going to understand Em, you need to be an expert on current affairs in both the world and the rap world. He references a lot of stuff that pertains to both. He doesn't just rap about drugs and sex like a lot of rappers do.
You have no idea. . . Or maybe you do. When this dropped at midnight and this song started I was in pure bliss and ecstasy. It was a surprise too. The Ringer is one of his best tracks ever.
I was the complete opposite. As soon as I heard him say that, I turned the song off the first time I tried listening to it, because it sounded angsty and almost like something I'd expect MGK to put in the beginning of a track. It took me a while to come back to this song, just because it was so hard for me to get past that angry edgy intro 😅
I’ve heard this reaction a couple times but this 11:28 right here is how I know you don’t look up the lyrics and study beforehand because all these other reaction channels that “break down on first listen” always say Thames instead of temps. I know this is real because he says temps not Thames and then people are saying it’s the river in London. No, you’re full of it and a fake channel!! This channel is real and this is why I subscribe to you and not those other fakers. Not saying they’re all fake but a majority of them are. Keep up the good work… been a fan of your reactions for a while and it’s nice going back and listening to your older stuff like this too.
1000th listen to this tune and I never noticed where he said the counselling sesh, ironing shit out with the press. I always took it as the hole cleaning ironing scheme. But you made me realise it was also counselling sesh /with depress. Crazy 😜
You must hear Kamikaze... such a 🔥 album!!!! But make sure you rest first... cuz itll make your head hurt dude.... 🤣 You should listen to "Lucky You" next!!!!!
Great reaction! In the end, you broke it down as best as one can on the first listen, I think. And these videos always make me appreciate songs like this one even more, since English is only my second language. Your work here always helps me out with the more technical and crazy songs from Em and others. Keep it up!
Eminem called Trump agent orange. The reference was in to trumps spray tan but more importantly she t orange is what they used in Vietnam to poison the land. People debated Trump wasn't Orange. The whole reference went over their head
I don't know why it hits me so hard, but the "triple" I think, on "Full magazine, could take staples out." is as goat as it gets... Simple little one liner, but crazy depth.
Em NEEDS the smoke. Kamikaze and MTBMB 1 and 2 are his best work. No disrespect to the first three....they are great, but Em has been on a whole other level the past few years.
That's what I keep saying but noooooo..all these ignorant fans tryna tell me first 3 are the best, they don't even have this type of flows, rhymes, bars etc..
They asked me if I'm linked to terrorists. I said only when it comes to ink and lyricist. That is the most favourite line of em's come back. Those lines are so powerful. Like... You could write an essay on the dissection of those lines. Easily one of the best lines em has ever written.
The funny part, is that TMZ actually contacted the secret service about Eminem threatening Ivanka Trump in a song called Framed. As in, they turned Eminem in while accusing him of threats so they could write a story about the secret service interview happening. Stay Classy TMZ. And the BET Cipher had nothing to do with anything, so, that line isn't nearly as deep as you think it is.
cant wait to watch this, Cliff just started watching you a week ago and ive seen like 40 videos so far at least mosty em... hes my fav, im 32 so thats who i grew up watching... maybe sometime in the future, if you havent yet, get on that Rap God btw love your videos my man keep it up.. liked and subed
Awesome Vid like always ty for all you do and the time it takes always glad to take the time to watch your Vid hope you have a Awesome and Merry Christmas and New Years.
If you listen closely to the subvocalizations between bars, he's explaining the entrendres. "Evil. Spell." after "I'm E-V-I-L." "N. F. -ing." after "an effing" There are a few others spread throughout the song that I can't quite make out (no headphones), probably following the same concept of explaining his own bars that all tie back to people being too stupid to properly appreciate/critique his work. Yeah, he's taking shots at mumble rappers but he's popping off at damn near everybody for real (including TH-cam reactors, most of whom miss the vast majority of his entendres on every song).
On the evil spell out he also uses the phonic sound for L and doesnt just say L. So hes “E. V. I. LLL. Makes it sound like ill to me. So hes like an evil spell, wile spelling evil cus hes ill.
It's amazing that a 16 year old kid held back in the 9th grade twice and dropped out during his 3 year of 9th grade to pursue rap and hip hop full time. It wasn't easy for him but he started writing non stop except for family time. Absolutely Amazing what Em can do with paper and pencil. Of course reading the dictionary daily helps him with more fucking words that the common rappers would not have in their arsenal. I'm with Cliff Beats watching this man's skill set will prove exactly how hood Em is with his complete knowledge of the English language. That said, if he couldn't bend words or add extra syllables in words with only 1 to 3 or 4 syllables. And even better baby.3 to 4 syllable words get turned into 6, 7, or 8 syllable words. And he may cut part of words but you can clearly understand the word he wanted to do that to. I better get my ass to bed as its almost 4:30 a.m. here in middle Tennessee. We still have to prepare for the next one.Goodnight to all reading this!!! Go To Sleep.......
Honestly anyone who says you pause too much obviously don’t know who you are brother. Your so good at breaking this down. I’ve heard this song a lot and didn’t catch everything you caught. Def that guy who Eminem is dissing 😂. (Except I respect the hell out of Eminem.) Thanks for the breakdown. ✌🏼
Em has reached the pinnacle of lyrical ability. He doesn’t need to rap about of bunch of super emotional meaningful stuff anymore. Seems like he’s basically having fun with it and seeing what he can do with words and cadences. I’m sure he was watching KOTD and other battle raps and was influenced to start focusing on punchlines.
"Fuck you Eminem!" I love when Em triggers you. This one is followed by "Greatest" on the CD. Another fire song on this album. I'm like 99.999999% sure you've reacted to that already. If not, do it IMMEDIATELY!!!
Definitely an NF diss. He said "f"cking" just a few words prior so saying "effing" just seems weird. But also, I remember when NF started becoming popular on TH-cam & the common critique was that he is a clone of the Recovery era Em.. seems like too much for it to be a coincidence imo. Also, in the ad-lib he repeated " N F 'ing" & seems to me to be trying to make it clear that he wants you to think about what he just said.
Yea, I thought he was saying why would I goto the older version of myself if there is a slot that is already filled, which is NF and he doesn't want to be like anybody else in the industry since most of them he has already influenced, so he would be going backwards, just to sound like everyone one else...it's like you can't be a leader if you turn around..
The color blind reference is to people who rank Eminem in their top 3 rappers despite the fact that he’s white. Many people rank Em low, because he’s white…hence the ”shout out to my color blind people”. Absolute genius.
No in his freestyle he said that the thing was orange and a certain critquer made a comment on how weak it was and that the thing isnt even orange when he very clearly is
I'd love to show a Hip Hop head the kind of metal lyrics that got me into catching bars... ;) Cradle of Filth - Deflowering the Maidenhead, Displeasuring the Goddess
Right? I'm an old school fan of 80s thrash metal, and while I also listened to the OGs of rap in the 80s and 90s (LL Cool J, Ice T, Public Enemy, Busta Rhymes, Salt N Peppa, Missy Elliot, Biz Markie, et al), it took a loooong time (too long!) to really let go of my prejudice and appreciate the lyricism and musicianship of rap artists as compared with the legends of metal (Megadeth, Motorhead, Pantera, Anthrax, Metallica, Faith No More, etc.) I think that's why I enjoy reaction channels so much. I dig watching people be forced by real talent to leave their preconceptions at the door and come away with an appreciation that they never had before.

Couldn't have said it better myself!
I think lyrically this album and music to be murdered by is the best Em we’ve ever heard
The line, "Maybe Stan just isn't your cup of tea" is another reference. In Stan, part of the hook is "my tea's gone cold..."
Em in the background saying "Get it?"
Nice catch,I haven't listen to that one much
@@kazezero1500 Do.
@@scottallencarr I have listened to it a couple times but never examined it
@@kazezero1500 I slept on Revival for the most part. Not on purpose but because life. I was online when Kamikaze dropped, got 4-163 notifications about it and gave up that week LOL.
"You wont ever see Em icy but as cold as I get on the M I C" Banger line
EM I SEE as well
Nice catch
I love how he didn't just diss the flow he switched his flow multiple times to show everyone how it's done
“My ears are sweating, ‘F off’” might be the funniest thing I’ve ever heard. Enjoying your breakdowns.
Hahaha I feel ya
That's on point!
"Kamikaze.. dumbass" I died laughing, i don't know why. That was so fucking hilarious to me for no reason.
The “full magazine could take staples out” bar was in reference to Vince Staples. He had made a comment on Em, I can’t remember what right now, but that was a quick rebuttal to that
Also a full magazine has the staples taken out I believe
@@leefinn8958 Great input.
@@Tcrror lmfao
I’m curious, does anyone remember what it was?
Also a meaning of taking out a full staples center in LA I believe

Ended a sub genre of rap, and brought back a BUNCH of legends back to kill off mumble rap (Nas, Andre 3000, DRE, Black thought, etc.)
It's a lyrical masterpiece that I hold in the same regard as Lupe's Mural
Does it actually have 27 flow switches?? I wanted to count them but didn't want to make my brain explode :')
@@albanpaul907 yea i did count more than 20 flows tho but my brain started lagging so i left at that.
This album is absolute fire!
Me too. I know almost the whole thing by heart but some parts are hard to execute like him lol
Exactly!!!!
"I'm pausing a lot, f'n deal with it" 😂 love it!
This is another prime example of his lyrical gymnastics ability. For my favorite example of Em's lyrical marathon ability is Stay Wide Awake. He stays on the same cadence/rhyme scheme for so long in that track it's unbelievable.

One of the best Em songs fr! Totally underrated on the album though it’s absolutely insane
Lmfaoooo I love how you just casually say "Fuck off Eminem" 😂
Priceless!!
M is too good
You’re so god damn underrated. These breakdowns are INSANE. I’ve watched 10+ reactions, no one has gotten this many punch line explanations.
CLIFF. thanks for doin all these long EM vids, we appreciate it. Hope everything is going well in your personal life
The fire turned yours ears red lmao I watch all these old reactions every few months!

His talents age like a fine wine, he keeps his obscure rhyme schemes but the depth of his lyrics keeps getting deeper and more complex, it's crazy
The "Agent Orange" and "I don't even close my eyes when I sneeze" always cracks me up, the way he delivers that line.🤣🤣
As he says he doesnt even nod to the beat while im like hardcore nodding
Yaaaaas

Your so good at breaking this down. I’ve heard this song a lot and didn’t catch everything you caught. Def that guy who Eminem is dissing 😂. (Except I respect the hell out of Eminem.)
Thanks for the breakdown. ✌🏼
I’ve been sleeping on your channel man. Loving the reactions. A1 content. New sub right here
I’m impressed, your bar catching skills are on point. I didn’t catch the NF bar the first couple times through this song. Good stuff
Your reactions are great!
I'm so old LL Cool J EPMD used to hang out on my front porch
Em has reached the pinnacle of lyrical ability. He doesn’t need to rap about of bunch of super emotional meaningful stuff anymore. Seems like he’s basically having fun with it and seeing what he can do with words and cadences. I’m sure he was watching KOTD and other battle raps and was influenced to start focusing on punchlines.
Just settling down for the night here in Ireland but gonna watch you get the mind blown off you and the Eminem sweats first 😂😂🇮🇪
Huge fan cliff! Love watching em destroy your mind! You have to react to fall by Eminem! One of my favorites!
He just “8 miled” everybody hahaha
"Fuck you Eminem!" I love when Em triggers you. This one is followed by "Greatest" on the CD. Another fire song on this album. I'm like 99.999999% sure you've reacted to that already. If not, do it IMMEDIATELY!!!
Hahaha. Loved this video! Thank you. ❤
Ugh. I can't imagine the day when Em is gone either. Don't even want to think about it 😕.
swear i really need someone like you to break down some of my barz
Em was spazing FR!! And your ears are bright red and apparently on fire brother... lowkey bars
Fall is the best track on the album. He goes at everyone
Great reaction 🔥🔥 and barzzzz breakedown 🔥🔥
Why didnt he see his breath on the mirror?
Because Paul wants him to chill. Lmao. Em is so cold!
Getting my 🍿 ready for this
Definitely an NF diss. He said "f"cking" just a few words prior so saying "effing" just seems weird. But also, I remember when NF started becoming popular on TH-cam & the common critique was that he is a clone of the Recovery era Em.. seems like too much for it to be a coincidence imo. Also, in the ad-lib he repeated " N F 'ing" & seems to me to be trying to make it clear that he wants you to think about what he just said.
I wouldn't say diss but maybe more of a shot to let NF know that hey I see u and u might want to quit sounding like me
F ing clone of me, cuz NF don't curse... so 100 % a shot @ NF.
Yea, I thought he was saying why would I goto the older version of myself if there is a slot that is already filled, which is NF and he doesn't want to be like anybody else in the industry since most of them he has already influenced, so he would be going backwards, just to sound like everyone one else...it's like you can't be a leader if you turn around..
It's also in the ad library right after, em doesn't put anything in the track that doesn't belong there and the ad li s are clues most of the time
Absolutely a shot at NF
Nice and early for this one can't wait to see what you think 😂
The color blind reference is to people who rank Eminem in their top 3 rappers despite the fact that he’s white. Many people rank Em low, because he’s white…hence the ”shout out to my color blind people”. Absolute genius.
No in his freestyle he said that the thing was orange and a certain critquer made a comment on how weak it was and that the thing isnt even orange when he very clearly is
Digging your break downs man. Good shit.
I've listen to this song 1000x and seen 100s of reactions. No one has caught that ice scheme....not even me....subscribed
Love EMINEM LEGEND one of my favorite songs by him
Love this
I'd love to show a Hip Hop head the kind of metal lyrics that got me into catching bars... ;)
Cradle of Filth - Deflowering the Maidenhead, Displeasuring the Goddess
Good Selection right there
Right? I'm an old school fan of 80s thrash metal, and while I also listened to the OGs of rap in the 80s and 90s (LL Cool J, Ice T, Public Enemy, Busta Rhymes, Salt N Peppa, Missy Elliot, Biz Markie, et al), it took a loooong time (too long!) to really let go of my prejudice and appreciate the lyricism and musicianship of rap artists as compared with the legends of metal (Megadeth, Motorhead, Pantera, Anthrax, Metallica, Faith No More, etc.) I think that's why I enjoy reaction channels so much. I dig watching people be forced by real talent to leave their preconceptions at the door and come away with an appreciation that they never had before.
Nice man "31mins" Much respect!
